While it's early yet, the evil Red Stockings are 6-1, while the Yanks are mired at 3-4, but they did win their home opener yesterday vs. KC with a dramatic HR from the captain, Derek Jeter.
And hold a 9-5 lead this afternoon after 6 frames, thanks primarily to a granny by the Sheff.
Almost as evil Cleveland is 6-1 as well, while Oak & LA/Anaheim/California are at 5-3. Detroit is an early surprise ar 5-2. Where did this Shelton kid come from, anyways? Defending champs have had a rough start, losing series to Cleveland and KC, but Thome has been a force. Hit #5 today against Det. which had the Shelton kid go for HR #6! Wow. White Stockings win 4-3.
Over in the Senior circuit, the stupid Metropolitans are 5-1, with the Rockies(!?) leading the West at 5-2. The Central has Cincy(?!), Houston and Milwaukee(!?) all at 5-2 as well. Brew Crew is lookin good in the early going, nice mix of kids with holdover vets like Jenkins and Lee. Cards being swept by the Cubbies is not likely to happen again anytime soon, but the Redbirds did win the home opener in the new ballpark, which is gorgeous.
